How Hudsonville saw the hail — from two instruments
Mar 10, 2026 · Hudsonville, MI
The maps here read the same storm from two angles — point detections from NEXRAD, and modeled hail size aloft. Where the two disagree is informative: it marks where estimated size outran the signatures, or trailed them.
Radar-estimated hail size Surface resolved
Estimated size field The modeled maximum hail size across the swath, derived from radar aloft — the largest stone the storm could have supported, which is not necessarily what reached the ground.
Max size
0.75"
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Mar 10, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Hudsonville, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Mar 10, 2026 sits in Hudsonville's hail record.
This was Hudsonville's 1st recorded hail day — the first hail day in our records for the city. By severity it ranks 1st of the 2 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Hudsonville at 0.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Mar 10, 2026 convective day was bigger than Hudsonville: the same system put hail over 470 other tracked cities, 16 of them in Michigan. Nearest: Jenison (5 miles east, up to 0.75"); Zeeland (6 miles southwest, up to 0.75"); Holland (10 miles west, up to 0.75").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 2 Hudsonville storm dates on a live map — both surfaces, the reports, and a replay — and the same map is where you draw the swath. This page rebuilds nightly.

Near the severe threshold
What 0.75" hail means for Hudsonville roofs.
A signal this size sits near the National Weather Service severe threshold. Aging shingles and soft metals such as vents, flashing, and gutters may be more vulnerable; roof age, wind, and material condition all matter, and only an inspection can confirm damage.

A storm day here is a convective day — it runs from noon to noon
UTC, so late-night hail is grouped with the afternoon storm that
spawned it rather than split across two calendar dates. Ground
reports are public-domain observations from the NOAA Storm
Prediction Center. Radar tells you where to look. Only an inspection confirms damage at an address. Last updated Aug 2, 2026.
